Steakhouses in the burbs

Dined at Pete Miller’s last Saturday night, the Wheeling location. The original I believe is in Evanston. Our experience was Very poor all around.

Started w/a catfish satay appetizer. Came out quite a bit underdone. Sent it back. Then tried the Calamari, grilled. Came out swimming in balsamic vinegar, w/tons (too much) shavings of parmesan. Calamari were not fresh.

Onto Pete’s Chopped Salad which consisted of: caramelized onions, bacon, chicken, bleu cheese, cheddar cheese (they really like their cheese here), tomato, egg, broccoli, crispy wontons w/balsamic Dijon dressing. Just not good, flavors should pop, they did not.

Judi had the Tuna Medallions – no flavor.

I had the NY strip – whatever! Not good, wet aged, doubt it was USDA Prime as waitress stated their steaks were.

The fact that each item we had was poor, we will not go back to Pete Millers
